Project: qr-bills - The Ruby Toolbox

QR-Bills gem for implementing Swiss payments.

Notes

Please note that no checks are performed to validate IBAN and references (like Creditor Reference) when submitting the params. These checks are required to be performed by the application.

Deprecation warnings ⚠️

⚠️ 🔥 If you are using qrcode_filepath please switch and start using qrcode_format as qrcode_filepath will be deprecated and removed!

Usage

Generate a creditor reference (ISO-11649) number

The creditor reference is composed as follow:

RF + 2 check digits + reference

Max reference length is 21 chars.

QRBills.create_creditor_reference("MTR81UUWZYO48NY55NP3")
# => "RF89MTR81UUWZYO48NY55NP3"

Availables outputs formats

params[:output_params][:format] = "html"
# OR
params[:output_params][:format] = "png"
# OR
params[:output_params][:format] = "svg"

html returns a full qr-bill as a html-template string, uses params[:qrcode_format] for the qrcode format which supports png and svg. Defaults to png.
png returns the qrcode of the qr-bill as a ChunkyPNG::Image object.
svg returns the qrcode of the qr-bill as a svg string.

Availables qr-bill types formats

QR bill with (new) creditor reference

This is a new bill type introduced with the new qr bills format

params[:bill_type]                      = QRBills.get_qrbill_with_creditor_reference_type
params[:bill_params][:reference_type]   = "SCOR" # fixed type for bill with creditor reference
params[:bill_params][:reference]        = "RF89MTR81UUWZYO48NY55NP3" # example

QR bill with (old) reference type

This can be compared to the (old) orange bill type

params[:bill_type]                      = QRBills.get_qrbill_with_qr_reference_type
params[:bill_params][:reference_type]   = "QRR" # fixed type for bill with qr reference
params[:bill_params][:reference]        = "00 00037 01588 13258 31366 09972" # example

QR bill without reference

This can be compared to the (old) red bill type

params[:bill_type]                      = QRBills.get_qrbill_without_reference_type
params[:bill_params][:reference_type]   = "NON" # fixed type for bill without reference

Generate a QR-Bill

# get the QR params, so you will get the full hash structure and as well some default values
params = QRBills.get_qr_params

# fill the params, for example

# generate the QR Bill
bill = QRBills.generate(params)

# bill format is given in the params, default is html
# bill has the following format:
#    bill = {
#      params: params,
